The Letdown

The Letdown is an Australian comedy television series that first premiered on ABC in 2016.

It follows the adventures of Audrey, including her struggles as a new mum in an oddball mothers' group.

The title is a play on the word letdown, which refers to the let-down reflex in breastfeeding, but is also a colloquialism for disappointment, both of which are key elements of Audrey's story.

[6][7] In the second series, Audrey's daughter is a one-year-old toddler and her partner Jeremy is living and working in Adelaide.

As the second series goes on, we learn that Audrey had an abortion because she and Jeremy were not ready for a second child and because her clinician told her that a second pregnancy might rupture her uterus.
